SR-D22075 · Issue 501343

Wild card character escape added for filtering data records

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

It was not possible to export data type records which were filtered with either _ or % in the value. This was due to the characters being wild card characters in the SQL-like operator, and has been resolved by modifying the NativeSQLAPIResolver to add escapecharacter to the runtime value of the filter.

Bix extract performance improved by only checking cipher type for encrypted properties

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

Previously, if no cipher was configured in extract Rules the cipher type defaulted to null and wasn't cached. This caused performance issues when running against the database. In order to improve performance, the code has been modified to only check for cipher type if the property is encrypted.

Interface changes made to avoid unexpected workitem deletions when removing stale locks

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

Attempting to delete lock instances of work objects by directly opening the lock item found through navigating to (Dev Studio) App > Classes > System-Locks actually resulted in deleting the work item instead of just the lock. This was due to System-Locks being uniquely identified by the WorkItem that they belong to rather than having their own specific key. This meant that clicking on one of the instances caused the system to respond by presenting a "default RuleFormLayout section" which included a delete button keyed to the actual workitem, but this was not made explicitly clear in the interface. In order to prevent unexpected item deletions, the table has been replaced with a link to the proper System-Lock interface, specifically the "My Locks" window.

SR-D25560 · Issue 494555

Added DSS to handle BIX extracts under parse delimiter rules

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When parse delimiter rules were applied, the File Listener was not parsing the CSV manifest file generated from a BIX extract until the file was resaved. This was traced to a space after a comma in the extracted files, and has been resolved with the addition of a DSS which enables the use-specified delimiter to remove the space after the comma in the manifest files.

Removed unneeded table name calculation

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

After giving short names (less than 30 characters) for "To Table", saving did not produce an error, but an error was thrown during Check In. Investigation showed that while checking in the extract rule, a block of code in the Rule-Utility-Function validateTreeProperties was being executed to recompute the pagelist's table name instead of using the name provided by the user. To resolve this, the Rule-Utility-Function has been modified to not execute this block of code during check-in of the extract rule. The validation will be seen during save if the 'To field' has more than 30 characters.

Configurability added to SLA Timeliness to allow either 0 or NULL for Unqualified records

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

When using a Report Definition where the count (aggregate function) was used for both the WithinSLA and Past Deadline columns, the correct value was not getting displayed. The correct value was displayed when the sum function was used instead of the count function, but clicking 'value' returned all values despite what value was displayed on the screen. This was a behavior change related to performing a drill down action on a report definition. As per the older behavior, drill down relies on a specific value (NULL) to determine whether a record is a candidate to be shown in the drill down report. From 7.2.1 forward, drilldown relies on value 0 instead of NULL to make the average summarize function work properly, which led to a change in behavior when used with other summarize functions like sum and count. To resolve this, SLA Timeliness related RAFs have been modified to conditionally return either 0 or NULL for Unqualified records based on a DASS config.

SR-D36372 · Issue 504745

Force order added to inner join when running a Rules Resolution filter

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

After upgrade, D_getResolvedWorkStatuses was not loading properly due to a Report Definition that used a Filter by Rule Resolution option timing out on the SQL Server. When the Filter by Rule Resolution option is selected in RD, it will generate a rule resolution query with an inner join which can cause a time out on the SQL Server while it tries to find out the join order for tables with multiple joins. To resolve this, the SQL server will provide a Force order, merge inner join hint option by way of an added DSS reporting/useForceOrderHint. Additionally, reporting/useMergeHintForRRquery should be set on Pega-Reporting to set things up for using the Merge Inner join hint in the query.

SR-D33934 · Issue 503334

Parent case lock properly released when child case is resolved

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

After creating Parent-Child casetypes with default locking where the child case had the “Allow access to parent” check box checked, the temporary lock acquired on the parent during resolution of the child case was not released afterwards. If “Allow access to parent” was not checked, then the locks were released on both the parent and the child. This was traced to a combination of parameters used by the openIfStale() API where aUnlockOnCommit could be set to false despite the provided locking strategy expecting it to be true, as well as honoring UnlockOnCommit when maintainLockingStrategy is false. To resolve this, the system has been updated to always check whether the lock is available in the map already and if it is, then set unlockonCommit to true. Otherwise, under all cases, honor the passed-in unlockOnCommit value.

BIX extracts traverse up from embedded pages to find target tables

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1

For BIX Extracts with Output Format : Database Schema, the target table name was not being generated if the properties were buried under two levels of Embedded Pages. Instead, in case of multiple nested levels of PAGE property types, the system ended up referring the immediate Parent page or its parent PAGE for pySourceName. Since this is of type PAGE, an empty value was returned for the target table name and the extract would fail. To resolve this, the system has been updated to traverse up the node parents until the correct target table name is found.
